Special Emphasis: Arts in Education

Welcome to the Arts in Education Emphasis:

The Arts in Education Emphasis offers students specialized courses in the areas of music and sound, drama and theatre, visual art, and performance, and in particular courses that reflect social justice concerns reflected through the arts and cultural production. This emphasis will attract students interested in the arts, elementary and secondary arts specialist teachers, and community, gallery and museum educators interested in examining arts education beyond schooling. We are a vibrant community of scholars and graduate students that thrive on collegiality, intellectual debate, critical analyses and inquiry.
